The 沃拉沃拉大学 drama program has big plans for their 2024–25 season. Kicking things off with performances in December is “Ebenezer Scrooge’s Big 沃拉沃拉大学 Christmas Show!” a fun, fresh take on the Christmas standard. Returning in March is wwudrama’s annual Festival of Shorts, and wrapping things up in May is William Shakespeare’s “The Merry Wives of Windsor.”
The fall quarter’s production is an adaptation of the classic “A Christmas Carol” by Gordon Greenberg and Steve Rosen intertwined with an origin story of how Village Hall came to be a theater. This music-laced story of love, 友谊, and transformation still retains the traditional values of the season, but wwudrama’s unique approach breathes new life into the well-known tale.
Jerry Entze and Richard Wallace, 戏剧节目联合导演, 欢迎任何同学, 教师, 工作人员, 或者来试镜, 不需要经验. Auditionees will be asked to perform a provided monologue. Auditions will be held 在村大会堂 at 6:30 p.m. 10月2日，星期三.
With winter quarter comes the return of the annual Festival of Shorts. This traditionally student-directed program will instead showcase student-written scripts consisting of original one-act plays. Remarking on this shift, Entze said, “We still want to showcase student work. It has been a while since we did original student-written scripts, so this seemed like a good year to focus on that element.”
他鼓励所有的学生, with or without previous experience, to submit their original scripts for consideration by the December 2 deadline. Up to six winning scripts will be produced as part of the festival with cash prizes allotted to the top three scripts and the audience-vote winner. See contest guidelines for more information.
Concluding the season will be wwudrama’s first ever production of William Shakespeare’s “The Merry Wives of Windsor.” Auditions will take place near the end of winter quarter with specific dates and details to come.
Performances of “Ebenezer Scrooge’s Big 沃拉沃拉大学 Christmas Show!” will be on December 5, 7, 8, 11, and 14 at 7 p.m. 在村大会堂.
